Per the dixprs website
"Processes:
* Main program, doing digipeating, message handling, sendin beacon, logging, etc.
* IS Gateway process, communicating to Internet
* Radio port handling (independent process for each radio ports)
In a typical system with one radio port there are three running processes."

Lee,
That's interesting, especially the figure for aprx. My
installation of dixprs (with 3 radio ports, the server and the
remote database enabled) sits around 33-34% for the main instance
of dixprs.py. There is four other instances with cpu load =< 1%
in each case. Maybe they're for each of the radio ports and the
remote database. Might be worth asking Bela to clarify the
situation.

Have you ever recorded those figures?

Aprx consistently shows "0%", which I assume means something less than 1%, which is impressively low. I think that shows how much more efficient compiled applications can be as opposed to those written in interpreted scripting languages like Python. Also dixprs runs a web server and interacts with a database, so that stuff probably makes a difference as well.
